swalwell seemed very happy. with the testimony. adam schiff seems happy. he called it productive. jackie spear said it was explosive. ta learned a lot. you know what i spoke to a republican with a different tale about today. we re supposed to get a transcript. we ll find out what happened. right. we re supposed to get a transcript. we saw cohen today wheeling in luggage. when you saw the luggage he was wheeling in presumably that was the documents that he was bringing in to the committee. he spent the night d.c. it s not clear why he would need all the luggage. they have to put up at some point. members of congress saying this was explosive. we learned all this new information. it has to km out. how much is actually new. keep in mind as you know the mueller team the southern district of new york had all
witness. we don t need to take cohen s words for any of it because there were other witnesses to these discussions and other people involved and michael cohen brought the receipts. he has documents and tapes. today he apparently brought to the house intelligence committee behind closed doors showing donald trump s lawyer, jay sekulow and leila fowlowell. the more he produces these documents to the committee, the more they are able to show to the new york times with their big piece of the checks written by the president in direct contradiction of all his claims that he knew nothing about stormy daniels. we also have to remember that he has nothing to lose at this point.
he says those checks were to reimburse him for hush money payment. as the new york times reports today, the dates on the newly available checks shed light on the parallel lives mr. trump was living at the time. the president hosted a foreign leader in the oval office then wrote a check. he haggled over legislation then wrote a check. he traveled abroad then wrote a check. on the same day he pressed the fbi director to drop the investigation into a former aide, the president s trust issued a check to mr. cohen. the sdny called that a criminal scheme. it is unclear what the new york prosecutors, if they agree. the big question we are asking today, could new york prosecutors indict the president? joining me now, our reporter tom winter, bloomberg opinion, executive tim o brien and tasha
h his secrets for the last decade. if he were to leave him hanging, cohen may be inclined to talk to people about this deal. he did expect a pardon around march of 2018. that all changed when his office and home were raided in april and the president distant himself from cohen and what did we see? we saw cohen going straight to prosecutors trying to strike some kind of deal where he ll tell them of the criminal conduct and he ll get a lenient sentence. clearly the president is trying to dual track here. again, it is not just the hush money payment that michael cohen addressed. he addressed the deal for trump tower moscow, we don t know what he s saying behind closed doors
financial officer. mr. weisselberg suggested in repaying in installments and told mr. cohen to send invoices once a month according to the people. weisselberg has a non-profit prosecution agreement. no, that s not the case. i am glad you asked this question. he had a one time immunity to testify before the grand jury specific to matter related to the michael cohen investigation. that s concluded and he s not providing anymore information. myself and anne schaehekter repd on that. it is the michael cohen investigation where he where the
